This guide covers every way to get around \u2014 horses, modular cars, boats, the minicopter and scrap heli, and the submarine \u2014 what each needs, and what it&#8217;s best for.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Horses<\/h2>\n<p>The cheapest mount. Buy a horse from a stable or find a wild one, and you have fast, <strong>fuel-free<\/strong> land travel. Keep it fed (it eats while hitched) and it stays healthy. Horses are the best early-wipe transport before you can build vehicles, and double as a quick getaway.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modular cars<\/h2>\n<p>Build a <strong>modular car<\/strong> at a vehicle lift from a chassis plus modules (cockpit, storage, flatbed, engine). The engine needs <strong>engine parts<\/strong> of decent quality, and the car runs on <strong>low grade fuel<\/strong>. Cars carry loot and crew and are the mid-game land workhorse \u2014 though they need a lift to repair and modify.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boats &amp; water<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>rowboat<\/strong> and the faster <strong>RHIB<\/strong> get you to Oil Rig and around the coast; the <strong>submarine<\/strong> opens underwater loot crates and stealthy approaches. All run on low grade fuel. A boat is essential for water monuments \u2014 see the <a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/blog\/rust-oil-rig-guide\">Oil Rig guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Air: minicopter &amp; scrap heli<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>minicopter<\/strong> is the iconic two-seat flyer for fast travel and raids; the <strong>scrap transport helicopter<\/strong> carries a full crew and loot. Both run on low grade fuel and are game-changers for monument runs and raiding \u2014 if you can protect them from being shot down or stolen. Buy them from the Bandit Camp or unlock the blueprints.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/xgamingserver.com\/rust-hosting-server\"><strong>Rust hosting from $7\/month<\/strong><\/a>, 30% off with <strong>XGAMEON<\/strong>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every way to get around in Rust \u2014 horses, modular cars, boats, the minicopter and scrap heli, and the submarine \u2014 and what each is best for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":21178,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21177","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-rust-server-docs"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.5 (Yoast SEO v26.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Rust Vehicles Guide: Horses, Cars, Boats &amp;
